SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
719: Question Based Advertising is The Future, $40M In Sales Doesn't Lie!

So it was pretty solid.

We were maybe making $30,000 of profit a month.

which was pretty much the same thing at that point because our costs were literally just kind of, I mean, ad spend at that point, like the office was like 800 bucks a month.

So you make 20 cents on every dollar you spend.

Got it.

The dollar would turn into $1.25.

And then so one day, one of our largest clients calls us and just basically, hey, you're sending us great leads, but they're kind of generic, right?

Can you just send us diabetics?

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
719: Question Based Advertising is The Future, $40M In Sales Doesn't Lie!

And we're like, well, no, we have no idea who is and who isn't diabetic.

719: Question Based Advertising is The Future, $40M In Sales Doesn't Lie!

So just free sample stuff, right?

It's kind of unrelated to anything diabetic related.

719: Question Based Advertising is The Future, $40M In Sales Doesn't Lie!

They're like, well, that's too bad because we could pay you like eight bucks instead of $1.25.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
719: Question Based Advertising is The Future, $40M In Sales Doesn't Lie!

And so either way, we got pretty motivated to figure that one out.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
719: Question Based Advertising is The Future, $40M In Sales Doesn't Lie!

That's right.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
719: Question Based Advertising is The Future, $40M In Sales Doesn't Lie!

That's correct.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
719: Question Based Advertising is The Future, $40M In Sales Doesn't Lie!

That was quite a lot more motivated.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
719: Question Based Advertising is The Future, $40M In Sales Doesn't Lie!

And so we tried a whole bunch of stuff.

I mean, we tried buying Google search, but that ended up being like 20 bucks a click.
